Why is," if and when Trump fires Rosenstein and Mueller," the question being raised ?

[jaysunb]

The question should be, WHY. It would seem that would be a part of every conversation. And, if we KNOW why, why are we just playing games.

The answer puts this whole affair in perspective.

[Eliot Rosewater]

1. We know why the same as we know that he has molested women, cheated workers,

done illegal racist shit in business, supported regimes that murder, etc.

There is no WHY, you CANT do this, it DEFIES the Constitution.

It DEFIES the rule of law.

3. it's obstruction of justice in an investigation of, among other things, obstruction of justice.

[Eliot Rosewater]

5. It is remarkable the hundreds of crimes, every lie almost is obstruction of justice

every action with Russians, treason.

You cant be more corrupt, a bigger liar and a more unpatriotic person, no such person exists and yet nearly half of the voters still support him at least to the point where no matter what they will never vote for a Democrat.

8. and so obviously so!

holy crap is he such a terribly obvious liar!

"no puppet! no puppet! you're the puppet!" i mean seriously, who on earth who's not a puppet would respond that way??

[Exotica]

10. it is decades of RW brainwashing, combined with a virulently anti-intellectual

human-rights-stripping, misogynistic, authoritarian fundie form of corrosive christianity, now all layered with open racism, xenophobia, sexism, homophobia, etc. The final, and explosively horrific catalyst is Trump's lies, lies by the thousands, lies daily, lies non stop, lies upon lies upon lies, that have literally removed reality and all critical thought from half or so of the country's collective mindsets. Hyper UNreality, to put on twist on Ecco and Baudrillard.

The final product is a wilful, viscous, violent, hateful groundswell of complete delusion, buttressed by infantile yearnings and demands to look at ANYTHING and only see their blinkered, broken, porcine selves. All other forces, all other dissenting persons, all other thoughts, philosophies, actions, all other EVERYTHING and anything that denies the Trumpian psyche of ANY of its worldview is now rent evil and worthy of death, division, destruction.

It is a psychotic break writ large enough to tear the modern world system apart if it is left unchecked, unchallenged, unbroken.

2. hence the smearing and the lies and the spin.

they're trying desperately to find some excuse, based on fact or fantasy, that might barely justify firing them.

this is why they've been trying to somehow argue it's a partisan hit job, even though sessions, rosenstein, and mueller are all republicans, as probably are most of his team.

they made a huge stink about a couple members of the huge team appearing to have traded emails bemoaning donnie's win in november, as if that justifies shutting down the entire investigation.

they're grasping at straws and they know it, but that's all they've got.

[Eliot Rosewater]

6. The ALREADY Fired Comey and yet they are dedicating websites to call him a liar

[YessirAtsaFact]

4. Because Trump is obviously guilty

And many players in the GOP establishment are complicit in his crimes.

[blake2012]

7. yes. MSM is and was always complicit with the evil GOP machinations. one dimensional analysis

followed by an hour of opinion circle jerk by paid propagandists are today's replacement for hard hitting journalism.

I will give WaPo credit for breaking from the herd in recent years.

[poboy2]

9. What infuriates me most is how the flimsy 'pretext' is known to be made-up bullshit,

but that THAT is seen as a plausible reason to obstruct justice under the guise of 'justification' for said firing.
